Connecting Audio Components; Connecting A Turntable - Yamaha RX-V1 Owner's Manual

Connecting Audio Components

Before you connect any components, disconnect the power supply to all the components you plan to connect including the RX-V1 and
determine which jacks are for the left and right channels and for input and output.
When you connect other YAMAHA audio equipment (such as a CD player or changer, MD deck, or tape deck, connect to terminals with the
same number labels. Yamaha applies this labelling system to all its products.

Hookups
Connect the left and right signal output cords to the PHONO L and
1
1
R jacks.
Note:
• These jacks are for connecting a turntable with an MM or high output MC
cartridge. If you have a turntable with a low output MC cartridge, use an inline
boosting transformer or MC-head amplifier when connecting to these jacks.
Caution:
• The GND terminal does not electrically ground the turntable. It simply reduces
noise in the signal. In some cases, you may hear less noise if you do not connect to
the GND terminal.
Connect the left and right analog signal output jacks on your CD
1
1
player to the CD 1 L and R jacks.
Notes:
• The COAXIAL CD and OPTICAL CD jacks are available for a CD player which
has coaxial or optical digital outputs.
• When you connect a CD player to both the COAXIAL CD and OPTICAL CD
jacks, priority is given to the input signals from the COAXIAL CD jack.
• The OPTICAL jacks on this unit conform to the EIA standard. If you use a fiber
optic cable that does not conform to this standard, the RX-V1 may not function
properly.
